Warhammer’s never-ending trial version

Gone are the days of the 10-day trial version for pay-to-play MMO games. This time, Warhammer is setting the trend for an “unlimited” trial version for players wanting more out of freeloading in the game. The game now allows new players to try out the game for as long as they want, but with a heavy condition: characters are capped at level 10. Players need to subscribe to take off the cap. Regardless, anyone willing to try Warhammer can now have more time to experience every single class or race in the game, explore some dungeons and finish some quests. Warhammer is also featuring a “streaming client.” Download the initial 1GB client and play the game while it streams and downloads the additional files in the background. “With the introduction of the endless free trial and streaming client, we are making it easier than ever for a new player to join the WAR,” said Jeff Hickman, executive producer, Mythic Entertainment. “We’ve worked hard to create a more informative and community driven new user experience, and now we are giving players an unlimited amount of time to explore the early parts of the game at their own pace. We are confident that players new and old will find all the enhancements we’ve made to WAR over the past year worthy of their time and commitment.”
